"Fascism should more properly be called corporatism, since it is the

The use of this quote merely proves that no one -- not the leftists, not
the rightists -- has the slightest idea of what he or she is talking
about.

Both want to characterize the "other side" as "fascist" because that is
a word that has become demonized -- and, as George Orwell said, has in
common parlance lost all its original meaning and now is simply a
synonym for what one doesn't like.

Mussolini, who invented modern fascism, though it was based on a Roman
concept, was _not_ referring to corporations as we know them in that
quote.

He was referring to organized interest groups: farm workers, industrial
workers, small business owners, large business owners, farmers, state
workers, et cetera, each of which was organized as a body ("corpore")
and represented in the legislature. He was not referring to limited
liability corporations as we know them today. The quote is very
deceptive if not understood in the language of its time.

That's not to say that the marriage of the omnipotent state with the
globalist money-men and their modern corporations is a good thing. It
isn't. We just need a better word for it.

Mussolini, for all his flaws, would have been against the usurers
(bankers) and their globalist corporations, by the way. They are
profoundly anti-nationalist and anti-culture.

Read Ezra Pound's poem _With Usura_. ( http://fisheaters.com/usura.html
)

An excerpt:

"Usura slayeth the child in the womb
"It stayeth the young man's courting
"It hath brought palsey to bed, lyeth "between the young bride and her
bridegroom

" CONTRA NATURAM

"They have brought whores for Eleusis "Corpses are set to banquet

"at behest of usura."



With all good wishes,

We can always count on you to stick up for the inbred and the paranoid.

I've never seen Mississippi mentioned in any of his postings.
